I have new pictures! I have done SO much! I know I didn't have any pics of the front yard before, but I have done a lot out there. More so than the back. Here is the front of my house: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/CristaMeganMommy/1.jpg This section here.. they had a large bush on the front...

Yes it is nice to have a clean slate :D Well.. I have done some work.. between being sick myself and taking care of sick kids (one with ear infections) and a sick husband. Here are a few pictures of my back yard and what I've got planned. There will be more pictures as things progress too. Ok.. This...

Thanks KHT. I put it in a pot for right now.

Hi and Thanks! Well I guess I'd better start plotting my veggie garden quick then huh?

December 2006 we bought our very first home. There has not been much done as for gardening so I have a clean slate to start with. But before I start planting anything, I want our new fence put up. We have scheduled a free in home estimate with Home Depot and they will be here in about a week. I cann...

Hi guys. Haven't been around HG in a while. Been pretty busy. Just purchase our first house. Anyways. I am planning a veggie garden this year.

ARGH! lol.. The more people tell me they dont know what it is.. the more I want to know dang it! lol

Man this thing just cant get ID'ed! It is fragrant, but I had to lean right down to it to smell it. So no one knows huh? My father in law and aunt dont know either and they know their plants lol.

I searched and my hubby searched online yesterday but .. we just cant find it!

Amber

I didn't notice any fragrance, but I didn't "smell" them either. I was pretty close tho as those are macro shots. Those blooms are pretty much gone now.. but if I get more I'll see if I can smell em

Thanks for your guess!
Amber

Well this bloomed! I still http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_28_113.gif what it is tho. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/23/23_3_32.gif http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/CristaMeganMommy/Garden/DSC07569.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/CristaMeganMommy/Garden/DSC07563.jpg T...

Ginger.. Tasha is a siberian husky and you did not spell malamute wrong

Amber

The light green leaves are the newer ones I believe because the ones underneath are darker. Why are you surprised it can grow in full sun?.. just curious.

Thanks for your reply

Amber

lol! Too funny. This is why i am afraid to have a pond. If I put one in.. I KNOW Tasha would be in it all the time. And also if I put one in.. I'd have fish in it... and.. well.. Tasha would find that a tasty snack...Just look at that evil grin! lol http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/CristaMeganM...

Thanks you guys! That does help! :D Well.. Our fence is probably a little over 6 feet.. and its pretty close to the top of the fence now. We planted it in a bucket in miracle grow potting soil (I use that for everything) then transplanted it right to the soil when it got bigger. I did that because t...

Thanks for your guesses guys! No it didn't bloom at all this year. Did you see that patch its in? When I first moved in, the girl who was here before us planted that, and she planted it in the front of that patch with three azaleas behind it. It looked so silly! She had no idea how to scape! So I du...

Thanks everyone :D Linda.. we also are navy! My husband is a nuclear engineer. He was on the USS Carl Vinson which just pulled in over here back in August. We moved here from Wa state because the ship is over here for refuel. My husband just took a shore duty tho so now hes at Norfolk. What ship is ...

I am not even sure if this is where this goes but I am assuming this is a bush or tree...

This was here when we moved in.. Anyone know what it is?

Thanks!
Amber
